Good morning to you all from Madarao, from where I have 6cm of fresh snowfall to report to you.


Visibility limited this morning so take care with those naughty things still popping up out of the snow in places.


Keeps the mind sharp!


More snow due in the coming days so we can hope for a gradual build up of the base (quick at times please!)
